for me, anything with lots of barre pretzels like callanetics.
i noticed that when i "tuck under" (navel toward spine) in a "c-curve" it helps a lot. also, cattail yoga pose which you do laying on the floor. it's a kind of back bend, but sideways in a way. when you view the pose, it looks like you're hurting yourself, but i found so much relief to my hips. this pose is on "Yin Yoga" with Paul Grilley. here's a picture: https://www.melissawest.com/201/yin-...ling-its-tail/ Quote:
edited to add: I'm guessing that doing pilates ring moves would do the same - gonna pull mine out and do that.

My right hip bothers me from time to time. I was diagnosed with a shorter left leg, and when I don't add my orthotic lift, I definitely notice more pain!
Barre sometimes helps me as Jeannine described, BUT when I do a lot of standing reps on my right side (which I've been doing with my current HDM rotation), it can ache even more! So stretching during the workout is very important. One routine that really helps my hips is the "Lower Back" segment from Debbie Seibers Total Body Solutions. The stretches address both low back and hips, and they feel great! I like to do foam rolling work too. (Btw, my fave move from TBS is similar to the "cattail" that Jeannine posted, but your bottom leg stays straight, and you start rolled to the side of the bent like, both arms out, then rotate your torso and opposite arm away from that leg. Hope this makes sense!)

Found the move! Only difference is that I don't use the foam roller, and I keep my head on the ground throughout:
